In honor of July 11th—National Polyphenol Day—I’m excited to share a little secret with you: what’s in my tea cup!

I’m not just sipping any old tea. In fact, I mix together 10 of the very best, polyphenol-rich teas out there.

Polyphenols are powerful antioxidants known to support overall health and wellness, and I make sure my daily brew is packed with them.
